The show table's favorite two-tone is finally in your garden.
Photo by Admin
Semi-Cactus · 4–6"Pink
Petals open deep magenta at their tips, then melt into a soft cream-yellow heart, two colors that pull you in from across the yard. The pointed, half-rolled petals give each bloom serious structural presence without losing that airy, open energy. Grow it once and you will understand why exhibitors keep coming back to Match season after season. It also holds its form on the show bench.
